Today PhishMe®, the leading provider of human phishing defense solutions, announced that it has been recognized as one of the 50 Fastest Growing Companies by Washington Business Journal (WBJ) for the second consecutive year. PhishMe moved up in the rankings from #21 in 2016 to #11 this year. The company was also in the top five companies that received the greatest percentage (288%) of employee growth between 2014 and 2016.

The WBJ list of 50 Fastest Growing Companies is based on average percent revenue growth between 2014, 2015 and 2016. Participating companies must have more than $2 million in revenue in 2014 and more than $10 million in revenue in 2016 to qualify. Growth must be consecutive year-over-year.
